EVALUATE AND
CONTROL HAZARDS
AND RISKS
ICF8 Q3 – LESSON 2
LESSON OBJECTIVES:
• Evaluate hazards and risks
• Control hazards and risks
EVALUATING HAZARDS AND RISKS
- the process of determining the
level of risk created by the hazard
and the likelihood of injury or illness
occurring. The priority of control
increases as the established level of
risk increases.
EVALUATING HAZARDS AND RISKS
Person identifying the risk of harm or injury
from a hazard in a salon should consider
these questions:
• how likely that a hazard will cause harm;
• how serious that harm is likely to be;
• how often (and how many) workers are
exposed.
EVALUATING HAZARDS AND RISKS
The assessment stage is essential
because it will determine the type(s)
of control methods required.
CONTROLLING HAZARDS AND RISKS
The goal of controlling hazards is
to prevent workers from being
exposed to occupational
hazards.
CONTROLLING HAZARDS AND RISKS
The most effective method of
controlling hazards is to control at
the source by eliminating the hazard
or by substituting a hazardous agent
or work process with a less
dangerous one.
ELIMINATION
- process of removing the hazard
from the workplace. It is the most
effective way to control a risk
because the hazard is no longer
present.
SUBSTITUTION
- occurs when a new chemical or substance is
used instead of another chemical. It is sometimes
grouped with elimination because, in effect, you
are removing the first substance or hazard from
the workplace. The goal, obviously, is to choose a
new chemical that is less hazardous than the
original.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
- consist of a variety of methods
for minimizing hazards, including
process control, enclosure and
isolation, and ventilation.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS
- controls which alter the way work is
performed. They may consist of
policies, training, standard operating
procedures/guidelines, personal
hygiene practices, work scheduling,
etc.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
- should always be used as a last line of
defense and is an acceptable control
method when engineering or administrative
controls cannot provide sufficient protection.
PPE may also be used on a temporary
basis while engineering controls are being
developed.
COMPUTER WORKSTATION ERGONOMICS
- the discipline of matching the task
to the worker using the most
appropriate equipment to optimize
human well -being and overall
performance.
GROUP ACTIVITY
GROUP ACTIVITY 1
Using the strips of papers posted on the
board, match the hazards, its risks and ways
to control such hazards.
Contact stress happens when force is
concentrated on a small area of the body,
pinching or crushing tissue and causing
discomfort and often pain. You experience
contact stress, for example, when the edge
of a work surface digs into your forearm or
wrist.
